Instead of supposing (wrongly, in the general case) that the rowtype
of an inheritance child table is binary-compatible with the rowtype of its parent, invent an expression node type that does the conversion correctly. Fixes the new bug exhibited by Kris Shannon as well as a lot of old bugs that would only show up when using multiple inheritance or after altering the parent table.
